Acercando la inteligencia artificial a los servicios de farmacia hospitalaria

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a broad concept that includes the study of the ability of computers to perform tasks that would normally require the intervention of human intelligence. By exploiting large volumes of healthcare data, artificial intelligence algorithms can identify patterns and predict outcomes, which can help healthcare organizations and their professionals make better decisions and achieve better results. Machine learning, deep learning, neural networks or natural language processing are among the most important methods, allowing systems to learn and improve from data without the need for explicit programming. AI has been introduced in biomedicine, accelerating processes, improving safety and efficiency, and improving patient care.By using AI algorithms and Machine Learning, hospital pharmacists can analyze a large volume of patient data, including medical records, laboratory results, and medication profiles, aiding them in identifying potential drug-drug interactions, assessing the safety and efficacy of medicines, and making informed recommendations. AI integration will improve the quality of pharmaceutical care, optimize processes, promote research, deploy open innovation, and facilitate education. Hospital pharmacists who master AI will play a crucial role in this transformation.
